Chain Reaction is a groundbreaking dance music label. Chain Reaction, and it's earlier incarnation Basic Channel, are so influentional and original that they have founded their own genre of techno. Releases by Porter Ricks, Scion, Monolake, Various Artists, Vainqueur, and Substance are mainstays in the recordboxes of most of today's better djs. I can see since you favor the Thomas Koner solo stuff you probably like more ambient or experimental stuff. But to dismiss the label as a sub-par minimal house because the label doesnt release records in the style you like is just plain ignorant. -->-Lance--- xxxxxxx@xxxx.xxx xxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states
